Neither any data buses of that size? Only in theory? See also my similar changes at 4-bit and 8-bit. |

Line 6:
In [[computer architecture]], '''1-bit''' [[integer (computer science)|integer]]s or other [[data#Uses of data in computing|data]] units are those that are {{nowrap|1 [[bit]]}} (1/8 [[octet (computing)|octet]]) wide. Also, 1-bit [[central processing unit]] (CPU) and [[arithmetic logic unit]] (ALU) architectures are those that are based on [[processor register|register]]s of that size.
A 1-bit register can store 2<sup>1</sup> different values, i.e. 0 or 1, or they can mean e.g. on and off. As this is very restrictive, larger registers are also used such as for the [[program counter]].
